This is the result of me trying to introduce my OC and thinking about 172 Days On The Moon (a great horror/sci-fi book). Enjoy.
Demented
He smiled at me. It seemed so weird- even after everything that happened, Jason was still...
Insane.
The pure white walls keeping me in here with Jason infuriated me. I had screamed to be let out until I ran out of breath. I'd reviewed everything at least 5 times. I might as well go over it again.
I'd better start from the beginning, before everything happened and all the secrets were revealed and... everything.
It started when I was in the pizzeria. Sky, Ty and Jason walked in. My eyes widened, because, heck, I'm- I was- a fangirl! They laughed and joked with each other, and started teasing Jason about his helmet. Sky laughed and said "Are you an alien? There's air on this planet, ya know!"
Jason's all black eyes flashed from behind the helmet, but I was the only one to see them. For a second, his true form showed. My heart nearly stopped, and I had to struggle to keep my wings and tail under control. Nobody else was in the restaurant. Probably due to me.
I stared at Jason. The helmet's dark orange glass visor was nothing to my eyes. I could see what was really behind the helmet. I could hear sizzling coming from under the spacesuit. I knew why he needed that suit.
And it had nothing to do with fashion.
Ty looked at the chef, standing nervously at the counter, sneaking glances at me. "Why isn't anyone here?" The chef's eyes darted over to me. I pulled my hoodie over my head and tucked a turquoise strand of hair inside my black hood.
Standing up, I walked toward the exit, my tail flicking against the inside of my black jeans. My wings twitched, and I rolled my eyes back in my head. I mentally told Som to stop. Som did.
I pushed the door open, and looked back at the famous youtubers. Sky was poking at the latch that let Jason's helmet off, and Jason was pushing his chair back from the table, attempting to get away from Sky. Ty was sitting, looking at the proceedings.
I saw Jason's eyes flash numbers and letters across them, a line of gibberish.
Well, not really. Actually, not at all. I understood what Jason was now.
It was a number, followed by four letters, and another number. You might have guessed it by now, if you're into space mysteries.
6eQuJ5.
That was the number.
And it terrified me.
Jason stood up suddenly. Sky took a step back. I was standing in front of the pizzeria window, staring at what was going on. Ty tilted his head, and got up.
Jason ran outside, bumping into me. I jolted as if hit by lightning. My shades fell off and landed on the ground. Jason ran toward an alleyway. I don't remember where; it was the middle of the city. Sky followed him, shouting "I didn't mean to, Jason!" Ty stopped and looked at me. "Are you ok?" I nodded, my purple eyes meeting his rust-colored ones, and pointed to where Sky was turning a corner. "They went that way." I picked up my sunglasses, and put them back on so no one would see my cat-like pupils.
Ty started running after Sky and Jason. I took my hoodie off, not caring who saw my wings. After all, they wouldn't notice the turquoise feathers, they'd just assume I was a Fallen or something.
Just as long as they didn't see my tail.
I spread my wings and burst into the air, finding a air current and riding it. The current carried me to the alleyway, and I dropped out of it, landing on top a building. Jason was taking off his helmet. There was nothing I could do.
Sky stopped. "Jason, what are you doing?" Jason glared at him, eyes steely under the helmet. "You wanted to see what was under my helmet. I'm showing you." Jason took the blue and orange helmet off, and threw it to the ground. A strange red tendril drifted out, toward the helmet, but Jason stopped it and pulled it back into the spacesuit.
Jason rose up, floating. He was not human. He was a soulless entity, a being of power, an alien not of this world. He was 6eQuJ5.
I looked down on what happened next, eyes filled with horror. Jason was a ball of glowing red energy, with tendrils reaching out. "I can take any form," he said in a gravelly, inhuman voice. "I can change from any human I've ever seen to anything in the universe."
Sky was backing away. Ty ran down the narrow entrance. You can guess what happened next.
Ty collided with Sky, and the two youtubers fell down, unconscious. Jason took his normal body form, in his spacesuit. He lifted up his helmet and put it on. In his normal voice, he muttered "I'm not Jason. I'm... 6eQuJ5." He said 6eQuJ5 easily, like he'd been saying it forever.
Which, in a way, he had.
My theory, as of then, when Sky and Ty were unconscious and Jason had revealed himself... Well, my theory was that Jason had been created when we- humans- got the 6eQuJ5 signal. It was partly right.
Jason took the helmet off, and two tendrils snaked out from under his helmet. The glowing red energy strands picked up Ty and Sky.
Jason whipped his head around suddenly, and saw me briefly. He stared up at the rooftop I was perched on, and shook his head. "Musta been a cat." I smirked. Close, but nope.
He looked around the alley, then rose into the air. I jumped off the building, landing on the empty sidewalk and watching Jason fly away. I spread my wings and lifted off, flying behind Jason. I let the alien get far away, then I sped after him until I was about ten feet behind him.
I repeated this pattern until he dropped out of the sky. I flew to the building he landed on, then realized he had gone into the building through the roof.
I looked down at the roof, and... I... don't know... I think what happened was a tendril reached up through the roof, and pulled me into the building. All I know is that I was somehow in the building. Jason looked at me with scorn on his face. "I knew you were following me the second I saw your face on the roof." I mentally facepalmed. Jason smirked at me. "Like my pun?" I tilted my head, and then remembered the 'musta been a cat' comment.
I backed up, away from him. "What? I'm not a cat." Jason raised his eyebrows, and looked at the top of my head. A red tendril snaked out from his spacesuit, helmet off and lying in the corner, and flicked my hood off.
I reached up, but the damage was done. My ears were right there, and Jason saw them. He smirked. "Well, a cat with wings, that's peculiar, isn't it?" Another red strand of energy flicked my shades off, and I narrowed my purple eyes.
"I don't like being called cat." Jason smiled. "Cat, cat, cat, cat, catty cat cat!" I gritted my teeth. I looked at the alien, still chanting cat.
"You want a cat? Too bad. I'm afraid you only have me." I ripped my hoodie off as I said this, and spread my wings. My tail whipped out of my jeans, and glowed bright orange like it did when I was mad.
I looked pretty menacing, standing there, my eyes shining purple, my turquoise wings fanned out, my tail glowing. I thought- at the time- that was why he scrambled away from me with a yelp. Jason held out a hand, trying to stop something from reaching him.
Then Jason's spacesuit collapsed to the ground, and everything went black.
Ok, so raise your hand if you know what 6eQuJ5 is. *cricket chirp cricket chirp* Ok, so I'll explain. The Big Ear picks up radio signals from outer space, and it reads everything that's a meteor, star, planet, etc. as 0, 1 or 2. But then one day, it got the Wow signal, 6eQuJ5. Nobody knows what it means, whether it's an alien race trying to contact us or a radio signal that bounced off something and came back. I find it very interesting, but some people don't. I hope you enjoyed, please review, all that stuff. By the way there will be another chapter if I'm not too depressed because I kinda left a major cliffhanger. Thanks for reading!
